The Charge

Lesbian Lyncanthropes on the Loose

The Case

I like Misty Mundae. I think she has a cute, unpretentious, girl-next-door
quality that makes even her most lame performances watchable. I've seen more of
her films than is probably safe to admit in public, but I don't actively seek
out her work. Apparently, I'm in the minority. Misty seems to have a base of
eager fans who clamor for every scrap of film and video that features the nubile
beauty. Those fans have to clamor because throughout the years Ms. Mundae has
acted in a number of features which haven't seen release for various reasons.
One such opus, An Erotic Werewolf in London, is finally getting a DVD
release seven years after it was shot.

Directed by William Hellfire (Duck! The Carbine High Massacre), An
Erotic Werewolf in London tells the story of a lesbian lycanthrope
(Anoushka, Play-Mate of the
Apes)—do I need to mention that the film doesn't even bother to give
us character names?—who is seduced by a bartender (Misty Mundae,
Spiderbabe). After some post-coital biting, the bartender now suffers
from the werewolf curse. Meanwhile, our initial lycanthrope heads to London to
tell her story to a British tabloid. This plot device allows for a lot of
flashbacks involving werewolves and lesbians. Meanwhile, our bartender is ill
from the effects of the bite and is tended by a number of naughty nurses.
Eventually, Misty's werewolf turns and meets a tragic fate.

The previous paragraph makes the film sound a lot more coherent than it
really is. In reality, the 68-minute film skips from lesbian scene to lesbian
scene with a minimum of dialogue and narrative drive. The couplings themselves
are above average for Seduction Cinema, with some real chemistry between the
participants and no annoying interruptions from guys in gorilla suits. Those
looking for wicked werewolves should go elsewhere, as this film sticks with a
minimalist aesthetic. We're talking claws, fangs, and the barest wisps of hair
to preserve the erotic half of the "erotic werewolf" equation.

Ostensibly, the film's star is Anoushka, although her silicone-enhanced
assets are atypical for Seduction Cinema films. However, fans of Misty Mundae
need not despair, for she commands almost as much screen time as Anoushka, and
gets the better pairings of the two, including encounters with Ruby LaRocca,
Darian Caine, and Julian Wells.

Shot on three different formats, the video is a predictably mixed bag. It
doesn't look horrible by Seduction standards, but it won't win any awards. The
best I can say about it is that there are no problems which make it difficult to
make out the ladies. The audio is slightly worse, with a lot of variability in
the quality and volume of the various effects and dialogue. But, since there
wasn't much dialogue in the first place, it's hardly a huge complaint.

To make up for the seven years between production and release, Seduction
Cinema has given fans a nice selection of extras. First up is a set of liner
notes by Ed Grant of Media Funhouse. They provide an informative discussion of
the film and its history (as well as some candid shots of the leading ladies)
for those who don't want to wade through the commentary. Speaking of the
commentary, it's a chatty affair with the director William Hellfire and the
producer Michael Raso, hosted by Ed Grant. The three discuss the history of
Hellfire's Factory 2000 outfit as well as Seduction Cinema and the making of
Erotic Werewolf. The audio quality on the commentary is pretty bad, with
some clipping and distortion, but it's worth a listen for fans of Seduction. The
other Erotic Werewolf related extra is a reminiscence by Ruby LaRocca, as
she discusses her history with Seduction Cinema and Factory 2000. The fist disc
rounds out with the usual trailer vault featuring lots of spoofy fun.

The final extra is a bonus feature entitled Night of the Groping
Dead. If you've waited your whole life to see zombie rape, then you can die
happy after viewing Night of the Groping Dead. At only 48 minutes long,
the less said about this film, the better.

If you've been waiting years for An Erotic Werewolf in London, you're
likely to be disappointed. Sure, it's got some lesbian lovin', but it's no
better or worse than any other Seduction Cinema title out there. Those just
looking for some more sexy Seduction fun will probably be more pleased with this
disc. If you've never seen a Seduction Cinema film, then this is probably not
the one to start with.

An Erotic Werewolf in London is guilty, but that's hardly the
point.
